Definitions

  • This invention relates to looms and more particularly to looms of the kind wherein the weft is drawn off a stationary storage spool and inserted in the shed by weft inserting members not including any bobbins. More especially, the invention relates to suction devices for use in looms of the aforenoted type and designed to maintain the weft tensioned even after the ends of the weft have been released by the weft inserting member, until the reed has completed its stroke.
  • Another prior art device aimed at attracting the weft ends by suction and conveying the weft ends thus secured to a holding mechanism which during the stroke of the lay, held the weft in tensioned condition by firmly clamping the ends of the weft.
  • the invention contemplates suction nozzles arranged on the lay and on the spreader, respectively, the nozzle on the lay being adapted to surrender the ends of the weft introduced into the shed to the nozzle on the spreader in the course of the forward stroke of the lay.
  • the suction nozzles are valve controlled in such a manner that the nozzle on the lay is activated, i.e. maintained under suction, while the lay moves from rear dead center to closure of the shed, and the nozzle on the spreader is activated from closure of the shed to impact of the reed.
  • a common control valve is provided for the suction nozzle on the lay and the nozzle on the spreader.
  • the nozzles may be provided as regular suction nozzles, or else as injectors; in the latter case they are controlled by a common control valve controlling the flow of compressed air.
  • FIG. 1 is a diagrammatic representation, in perspective, of the essential parts only of a loom provided with a suction system according to the invention.
  • FIG. 2 is a similar showing of part of a loom equipped with a modified, injector type pneumatic system according to the invention.
  • FIG. 1 shows a lay 1, mounted for back and forth displacement on a sword 2.
  • the reed 3 is mounted on the lay 1.
  • the spreader 4 including shears is disposed on both sides of the fabric 5.
  • the suction nozzle 6 is mounted on the lay 1, its suction port 10 being disposed in proximity to the outermost lower shed threads 11.
  • the suction nozzle 7 terminating in suction port 12 is mounted on the spreader 4, in any suitable manner not requiring illustration. Ends 13 and 14 of the nozzles 6 and 7 remote from the suction ports 10 and 12, respectively, are connected with a control valve 9. Via rod 15 the control valve 9 is imparted a reciprocating rotary motion by the picking shaft 16 which revolves at half the number of revolutions of the drive 17 for sword 2.
  • Control valve 9 is arranged to connect the nozzle 6 with the conduit 8 leading to the source of vacuum (not shown) when the lay 1 is in rear dead center, and to connect the nozzle 7 with'conduit 8 when the lay 1 is in front dead center.
  • weft inserting member is omitted in the drawing which shows, however, weft 18 already introduced into the shed, as well as its left end portion 19.
  • valve 9 connects nozzle 6 with conduit 8, with the result that the weft end 19 is drawn in by suction port 10.
  • Nozzle 6 on lay 1 remains under vacuum while lay 1 proceeds from rear dead center to closure of the shed.
  • valve 9 changes its position so that in place of nozzle 6, nozzle 7 is connected with the vacuum.
  • suction port 10 has reached a position underneath suction port 12, and the weft end 19 so far held by suction from port 10, is now surrendered to the control of suction port 12.
  • the weft end 19 remains in the nozzle aperture 12, and therefore maintains the weft 18 in tensioned condition, until end 19 is separated from the selvedge by the shears arranged on spreader 4, the separated weft end 19 being then carried away through the nozzle 7 and the suction conduit 8.
  • this includes nozzles 20 and 21 associated with injectors 22 and 23, respectively.
  • Compressed air lines 24 and 25 leading to injectors 22 and 23, respectively, are connected with a pressure valve 26.
  • the device shown in FIG. 2 involves the important advantage that the injectors 22 and 23 can be disposed in immediate proximity to suction ports 27 and 28, respectively, whereby a materially increased suction effect is secured.
  • Another advantage of the embodiment of the invention of FIG. 2 resides in that the cut ends of the weft are not carried away through the suction system including the control valve 26, as in FIG. 1, but are conveyed through conduit 30 directly to a waste collector 31 without passing through the valve.
  • a vacuum tensioning device comprising in combination: a first suction nozzle which is mounted on the lay and which is operatively connected to a vacuum source so that when the lay moves from rear dead center to closure of said shed the weft is tensioned in this first movement; a second suction nozzle which is mounted on said spreader and which is operatively connected to the vacuum source for effecting the References Cited by the Examiner UNITED sTATEs PATENTS 1,921,396 8/1933 Pool 139 127 1,963,098 6/1934 PO01 139127 2,089,620 8/1937 Rossmann 139 194 2,762,399 9
